China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 762. Ruth is forced to be a maid, and Director Guo is exiled
In the office of Mr. Cao, the boss of Feiyu Entertainment, Yang Mi saw the script of "Dying to Survive" and immediately became interested.

Although she didn't know the content of the script, as long as it was written by Cao Yu, it would be correct.

Cao Yu did not agree immediately, and said with a smile: "You can take a look at the script first to see if you can do it?"

"My acting range is now very broad."

Yang Mi, who was full of confidence, frowned after quickly reading the script.

The script is indeed very good and touching. With Feiyu's reputation, this film will definitely be a big hit.

However, the heroine in the movie actually has to dance on a pole.
My beautiful legs would definitely be a selling point if I were to do pole dancing.

But I can’t dance.

More importantly, there is an intimate scene in it...

Yang Mi turned her head and glanced at Cao Yu, who seemed to be smiling: "If I acted out this scene, would you be jealous?"

"I can."

Cao Yu naturally didn't want his woman to act in such a revealing movie, but then he added: "But I want to see you pole dancing."

"I knew you had bad intentions. If you really want to see it, I can learn it."

Yang Mi hung on Cao Yu's neck, grumbled, and then said, "But heroine, are you really going to give it to me?"

"That's not a problem."

Cao Yu said, pointing to a passage in the script: "When the heroine Sihui saw her manager being forced to dance, she felt sad and humiliated, with tears in her eyes, but she was trying not to cry. Act it out for me first."

In Cao Yu's opinion, the appeal of this shot tests an actor's acting skills more than pole dancing.

"Now?"

Yang Mi didn't expect Cao Yu to be serious, and she felt a little scared.

“You’re an actor.”

Cao Yu took out his phone and said, "I am the director now, and the phone is the camera. Just prepare yourself and start."

Yang Mi read the script for a while, immersed herself in the character, and then began her performance.

"No! Come again!"

"It still won't work. You have to think about Sihui's past experiences."

"Again!"

……

But she performed it several times, and Cao Yu could never feel the sadness in Yang Mi's eyes.

Although her performance was much better than I expected.

"Forget it. It's a bit too much to ask someone like you who has never experienced hardship to act out hardship."

Cao Yu put away his phone and said with a smile, "This film is very important to the company, and the leading female role is also very important. If you really want to act, practice pole dancing for a month first, and experience how hard it is. Then maybe your acting skills will break through."

"You just want to see me pole dancing."

Although Yang Mi rolled her eyes at Cao Yu, she was actually not opposed to performing for Cao Yu.

At least my man likes me, so he is willing to watch it.

Cao Yu smiled and said, "My honey bear has long thighs. You will definitely look great in pole dancing. I am looking forward to it now."

"erotic!"

"It's not called being lustful towards someone you like."

"Sex me tonight?"

"Not tonight, I have an appointment tomorrow."

"Sooner or later, it will be a tired cow that dies!"

Yang Mi pouted in dissatisfaction and had to leave first.

“I don’t know if she can practice it.”

After sending Yang Mi away, Cao Yu called Zhao Liying and asked her to come to his office.

“They all lost weight”

After a while, Cao Yu felt a little distressed when he saw that Zhao Liying's face had become much thinner.

"Hubby, I'm now known as a model worker in the company. In the past two years alone, I've filmed three movies. It would be strange if I didn't lose weight."

Zhao Liying leaned in Cao Yu's arms, enjoying the long-lost warmth.

She has indeed worked hard in the past two years, but whether it is the two costume dramas "Legend of the Mermaid" and "Legend of Lu Zhen", or the modern drama "My Sunshine", the ratings and reputation are very good.

This year she has been receiving many film offers. In the second half of last year, she received a fantasy drama "The Legend of Sword and Fairy: Shushan War Chronicles" and a modern romance drama "The Formula of True Love for a Tomboy".

With these resources, they are considered quite good in the entertainment industry.

Cao Yu stroked Zhao Liying's face and said, "I have specially prepared a costume drama for you. Please reject the urban romance drama."

Zhao Liying raised her head and looked at Cao Yu with sparkling eyes: "Is it "The Story of Minglan"? "

"how do you know?"

Cao Yu was stunned. This girl is really smart.

Zhao Liying smiled and said, "I have also read the original novel, and I think I am very suitable for the role of Sheng Minglan."

"A smart girl is always likable."

Cao Yu hugged this woman who had been working hard silently and was strong and optimistic, "You really look like this heroine."

But Zhao Liying said quietly: "Husband, you haven't fulfilled your promise to me yet."

"I know. I haven't forgotten."

Cao Yu naturally knew what she was talking about: "After we finish filming this drama, we will create a baby in peace, I promise!"

"Ah."

Zhao Liying nodded: "Compared to filming, I want you to give birth to a child more."

"But you work so hard and your acting is so good. You are already a natural actor. I don't want you to be buried."

"Well, I'll listen to you and just have one child. Then I'll focus on filming."

Zhao Liying was imagining the future and suddenly said, "When we have a son, we'll name him Xiangxiang."

"."

Hearing this name, Cao Yu felt dazed.

Is this a connection with the previous life?
He asked curiously, "Why is it called this name?"

"You were often away, and I was often out filming, so I often missed you, and that's why I came up with this name."

"Oh"

Cao Yu was relieved then, as long as it wasn't because of any crop circles.

For lunch, Cao Yu did not go out, but went to the restaurant upstairs with Zhao Liying.

Feiyu Entertainment’s working meals are all green organic food from its own farm, which is much better than the food outside.

He came to the restaurant and saw many girls in the company throwing autumn spinach to the boss.

If Zhao Liying hadn't been there, someone would have come over to chat with her.

The two had just sat down and hadn't started eating yet when Zhao Lusi, holding a plate, sat down opposite Cao Yu.

"Boss, where have you been recently? I haven't seen you for a long time."

Miss Ruth still looked like she didn't care about anything and asked about her boss's whereabouts right away.

Cao Yu directly retorted rudely: "Do I have to report to you every time I go out?"

"Boss, you misunderstood. I just didn't see you. I was just curious."

After being told this by her boss, Zhao Lusi had to restrain herself a little, and then she said, "Boss, I heard that the company is going to cooperate with Toho in a drama. How about arranging a role for me so that I can experience the feeling of filming in advance?"

After saying that, he added: "I have been working very hard recently, and my acting skills have improved rapidly. If you don't believe me, you can ask our teacher, or I can perform a scene for you."

Cao Yu didn't even need to look to know how much a little girl like you could improve in just over two months.
However, it is not impossible for him to learn while training with the crew.

After thinking for a while, he said to Zhao Liying: "What do you think of letting her play a maid for you?"

"This girl is very beautiful. Isn't it a waste for her to play a maid?"

Zhao Liying took a look at Zhao Lusi, who had a round face, and felt that she was pretty good.

When Zhao Lusi heard this senior speak for her, she said hurriedly, "Yes, it would be a waste for me to play a maid. At least I can play a rich lady."

Cao Yu would never indulge her: "Since you say it's a waste, forget it, you can continue studying." "I will play the role of a maid, a maid."

Zhao Lusi became anxious. What maid or lady? She should first play a gangster to make her look familiar. "Boss, what kind of maid do you want me to play?"

"Go back and read the novel "Do You Know?" first, and then we'll talk about it after you finish it."

“Still reading.”

Zhao Lusi hates books the most. She feels overwhelmed when she hears that she needs to read a book.

"You don't have to look at it."

Cao Yu said this calmly and ignored him.

In the future entertainment industry, don’t ask those who talk nonsense during interviews and don’t even know the characteristics of the characters they interpreted after the performance.

Domestic entertainment is not a gathering place for illiterate people!

Zhao Lusi didn't dare to say much. She just ate her meal silently, thinking, is it so difficult to be an actor?

Do you still need to read the original novel? Can't you just read the script?

Zhao Liying was kind-hearted and wanted to remind the girl of the importance of reading the original novel, so she said to Cao Yu: "I will compile a biography of Sheng Minglan in the original novel for you soon."

"Well, I'm sure you'll be fine."

Cao Yu nodded, then glanced at Zhao Lusi.

The little girl immediately understood what the boss meant.

"She has to read the original novel? Compile character biographies? Feiyu's requirements are too high. It seems that it is really not easy to stand out here."

Zhao Lusi groaned in her heart, feeling that she had jumped into a fire pit by coming to Feiyu.

But she changed her mind and decided that since her boss was back, she should find a chance to spend some time alone with him, at least to improve their relationship.

I have a round face and I am cute. Zhao Liying in front of me also has a round face. I may not be unable to become the next Zhao Liying.

During the meal, Cao Yu met with Cai Yinong and asked her to arrange the casting for the three dramas "Knowing Your Destiny", "The Glory of Tang Dynasty" and "Fighter of the Destiny" as soon as possible, and also prepare for the drama "The Legend of Nine States".

At the same time, ask someone to send over the acting assessment results of the company's artists from last quarter.

Stars like Zhao Liying, Yang Mi, Mao Xiaotong, Jing Tian, ​​and Nazha have already reached S-level acting skills and no longer need to be assessed.

But even if there is no assessment, when they get a play, they will rehearse the plot sketches and familiarize themselves with the characters' personalities, so that they can achieve the best effect during filming.

This is also the reason why Feiyu’s works have always been excellent.

But newcomers like Bai Lu, Li Yitong, Ju Jingyi, Zhao Lusi, Lu Han and others still need to learn and be assessed.

Among these people, Li Yitong performed the best, and Bai Lu was also okay, after all, he had been in the company for a long time.

Lu Han had been in FNC for a few years and his grades were pretty mediocre, with some A's and some B's.

His results in finding Xiao Zhan were surprisingly much better than Lu Han's.

"If Lu Han works harder, he should be able to film Fighter of the Destiny. Xiao Zhan should also be able to film The Glory of Tang Dynasty."

Cao Yu was thinking about the male leads for several dramas when Zhang Xiaotian knocked on the door.

"Boss Cao, Guo Xiaosi is here."

"Have him come to my office."

A moment later, Guo Xiaosi nervously came to the boss's office.

Along the way, he kept wondering what Mr. Cao wanted to talk to him about and why he called him over so urgently.

When I entered the office and found that Cao Yu had a gloomy face, I had a bad feeling.

"Mr. Cao, are you looking for me?"

"I heard you're going to make a movie called 'Lord's Dynasty'. Let me see the project."

"it is good."

Guo Xiaosi was glad that he brought the script with him and quickly took it out and placed it in front of Cao Yu.

Cao Yu picked up the project book, and sure enough, the investment was estimated to be between 150 and 200 million yuan, and most of the actors were based on those in "Tiny Times".

There is one more person, Fan Erbing and Chris Wu.

After briefly flipping through the script, Cao Yu threw the entire project book in Guo Xiaosi's face: "Shit! Is this your level?"

Guo Xiaosi is usually full of energy and always keeps his word in his company in Shanghai.

But he dared not breathe in front of Boss Cao, and quickly picked up the project book: "Boss Cao, I spent a long time polishing the script for this movie, and it will also use CG special effects, real people plus animation to produce it, it will definitely be good."

"Don't talk to me about special effects first. What the hell is this plot? It's confusing, the logic is confusing, and the relationships between the characters are even more confusing."

After Cao Yu pointed out the problems with the script, he shouted coldly: "Is this what you call a well-polished script? If you can't tell a story, why don't you go to a primary school in the mountains to teach for a while and tell more stories to the children?"

Guo Xiaosi lowered his head and said nothing after being scolded.

Seeing that he was still unconvinced, Cao Yu asked, "You think making movies is very profitable, right? The box office success of Tiny Times has made you a little proud, right?"

"No."

"No?"

Seeing that this guy didn't admit it, Cao Yu said angrily: "Go back and rewrite the script. If you don't tell the story well, if you dare to make this movie, you won't be able to work in the film and television industry anymore!"

"Mr. Cao, I will definitely make changes when I get back."

When Guo Xiaosi heard that his boss was going to ruin his future in the film and television industry, his hands trembled with nervousness.

Cao Yu asked again: "Also, are you short of money? Why did you invite Chris Wu?"

"Mr. Cao, I've seen this guy a few times in Shanghai. He's quite handsome. I think he'll definitely be famous."

"handsome?"

Cao Yu really couldn't understand this guy's level of appreciation.

Handsome?

You are just coveting her body.

You are despicable!
"Don't worry about the company's business in Shanghai. Go to Northwest China to teach for half a year and calm your wandering heart. Come back when you write a script that satisfies me!"

Cao Yu pulled the project book back from Guo Xiaosi's hands, tore it to pieces in front of him, and sent this guy directly to the northwest.

Guo Xiaosi's eyes turned red.

She was really famous, but she tried hard not to let the tears fall: "Boss Cao, I have signed a contract with Ali Pictures for this movie. If we don't shoot it..."

"Don't worry about Ahri."

Although Ali is very distant from her, Ma Yun still has to give her face.

"Well, I'll go today."

Guo Xiaosi's last hope was shattered. He looked at the scraps of paper on the ground and left the office silently.

He really couldn't figure out why the boss was so angry. Was it because I hired Chris Wu?

Or is it that my script is really not good?
Just go to the Northwest. It seems the boss is serious about this. If he bans you, you’ll be completely finished.

He first went to the bathroom, washed his face, and calmed himself down, fearing that he would be discovered and scolded.

When I was about to go downstairs, I happened to meet Yang Mi in the elevator.

"Xiao Si, what did the boss say? When will it start?"

Yang Mi didn't know that this guy was being scolded, and was just waiting to make a fortune from this "Jade Dynasty".

Guo Xiaosi smiled bitterly and said, "The boss tore up the project book and asked me to go to the northwest to teach. I will polish the script when I have time."

"Tear it up? And let Director Guo go to Northwest China to teach?"

Yang Mi was shocked. Was her man so fierce? He not only tore up the project book, but also sent the big director who made over a billion yuan in box office to exile?
"Hey"

Guo Xiaosi shook his head and sighed, then left Feiyu Entertainment.

Yang Mi looked at his somewhat lonely back and thought to herself, the boss has really high requirements for scripts. She should take this as a warning when choosing projects for her own studio in the future.

Guo Xiaosi was exiled and a film project was temporarily shelved.

However, when the casting news for several films of the company, such as "Knowing Your Destiny" and "Fighter of the Destiny", was released, the artists under Feiyu Entertainment and the entertainment industry became excited instantly.

Feiyu has five TV series to shoot this year, apart from "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" which has already started filming, there are still four.

In this way, the company's artists feel that everyone may have a chance.

At the same time, after Cao Yu finished dealing with the affairs of Jueji, his secretary suddenly said that the big boss of LV had come to China in person and wanted to meet him.
